 ===Acidic Dirigibug===
 {{main|Acidic Dirigibug}}
-The Acidic Dirigibug is a species of dirigibug that attacks using acid rather than of bomb rocks. It is green, like the Careening Dirigibug, but it has purple eyes and blue balloons. The Acidic Dirigibug regurgitates balls of acid that are covered by a thin membrane so they retain their form until they are dropped by the creature, where they burst upon impact with the ground or anything else it hits.

 ===Anode Dirigibug===
 {{main|Anode Dirigibug}}
-The Anode Dirigibug is a dirigibug that regurgitates high-voltage energy balls to attack using instead of bomb rocks. The body of the creature is brown, its eyes are green, and it has yellow flotation sacs, of which are electrified. The energy balls it spits out will detonate upon impact with a surface, creating a short-lasting but powerful surge of electricity on the ground where it landed.

 ===Auriferous Dirigibug===
 {{main|Auriferous Dirigibug}}
-The Auriferous Dirigibug is a small, golden, grounded insect. Lacking air sacs, the bug will hop around and find treasures or other objects to mimic. These objects are mainly treasures; which can fool [[Breadbug|Breadbugs]], or even Pikmin. If fooled, the Dirigibug will jump onto their prey, squishing them. The creature moves faster as it takes more damage.

 ===Berserk Dirigibug===
 {{main|Berserk Dirigibug}}

+The Berserk Dirigibug screams to detonate its bomb rocks.
 ===Careening Dirigibug===
 {{main|Careening Dirigibug}}
-The Careening Dirigibug is a legless creature that slowly drifts through the air by utilizing colorful, balloon-like air sacs attached to what can be considered its head. When approached by a Pikmin or leader, a Dirigibug will quickly produce a bomb-rock from its mouth. It will then try to approach the Pikmin or leader, and once close enough it will stop to toss the bomb-rock to the ground, activating its timer. If the Pikmin or leader exits the Dirigibug's territory while it has a bomb, it will continue to hold it for some time until dropping it anywhere.
+The Careening Dirigibug regurgitates volatile bomb rocks.
 ===Caustic Dirigibug===
 {{main|Caustic Dirigibug}}
-The Caustic Dirigibug is a relative of the Acidic Dirigibug and drops balls of water. Caustic Dirigibugs have blue bodies and air sacs, and red eyes. When approached by leaders or Pikmin, the Caustic Dirigibug will regurgitate a ball of water that is covered in a thin membrane and bursts upon impact with anything or any surface.

 ===Darkfreeze Dirigibug===
 {{main|Darkfreeze Dirigibug}}
-The Darkfreeze Dirigibug is a rare and dangerous enemy that can seriously decimate Pikmin populations. It is black with purple stripes and has neon blue eyes. It also has lots of spiky appendages and the balloons on its head look like a jetpack. Its attacks are similar to the [[Juggling Dirigibug]]'s, but the bombs it throws explode as soon as they hit the ground, creating icy explosions that quickly freeze and kill Pikmin.
+The Darkfreeze Dirigibug is infused by darkfreeze energy.

 ===Floaty Sneeterskee===
 {{main|Floaty Sneeterskee}}

 ===Hazardous Dirigibug===
 {{main|Hazardous Dirigibug}}
-The Hazardous Dirigibug is a member of the dirigibug family that regurgitates not bomb rocks, but [[Volatile Dweevil]]s.

+The Hazardous Dirigibug regurgitates more than just simple bomb rocks.
 ===Homing Dirigibug===

 {{main|Juggling Dirigibug}}
-This creature is an older species that has but one large air sac shaped red like a hot air balloon. It has a green body like it's relative, the Careening Dirigibug, but this one has six arms instead of two. It rapidly spits out bomb-rocks and catches them with its hands, then juggles them around until it sees a target, in which case it will set a few of them off with a correct scratch from its claws. Then, when the bomb is at just the right point, the insect will release it, throwing it accurately at its target where it will likely explode on contact with the ground, or right before it hits the ground sometimes.
+The Juggling Dirigibug can juggle multiple bomb rocks after regurgitating them.
 ===Mareening Dirigibug===
 {{main|Mareening Dirigibug}}
-The Mareening Dirigibug is a species of dirigibug that lives above water.

 ===Rocky Dirigibug===
 {{main|Rocky Dirigibug}}

 ===Sprinting Dirigibug===
 {{main|Sprinting Dirigibug}}
-The Sprinting Dirigibug is a land-based dirigibug, unlike most of its relatives. It quickly scurries around an area, jumping over most obstacles and enemies in its path, sometimes even accidentally triggering traps.
